Lost - Season Three


Recommended Posts

To the person that said this past episode was better than anything in the first two seasons, I have to strongly disagree. I was late to the party, but it was hard for me to not watch the whole first season in one sitting (on DVD, of course). Don't get me wrong, this was a good episode (and it did at least answer some questions as far as I'm concerned), but you can't put down season 1. :angry: :laugh:

As far as the chick in Kate's flashback - I know a couple of people have explained and I'm beating a dead horse, but I thought most people would remember her - she was in at least two of Sawyer's flashbacks! In one she got conned by him even though he supposedly loved her and in another she told him about their daughter when he was in prison.

But like I said, it was a good, solid episode. The fact that I feel like talking about Lost so much right now is a testament to it. I'm feeling great about the rest of the season now that Nikki and Paulo are gone. :)

(Sad thing is they got quite a bit more interesting after seeing the ending to their last episode)

They'll be back in the future episodes.

17 - Catch-22

18 - D.O.C

19 - The Brig

20 - The Man Behind the Curtain

The Nikki & Paulo story? You're kidding right? That episode was the biggest pill of crap Lost has ever aired. Come on, you're stuck on an island and you find another plane, a hatch, and other people on the island and don't tell anyone? Just doesn't make any sense to me at all.

absolutely. i wondered what the whole point of the nina and pablo characters were. they didn't advance the "lost" story one bit. it was more of a filler than anything.

Filler it might be, but they just didn't all of a sudden decide to make an episode just about them two. It's been pre-planned before season 3. Maybe even before season 1 ever started as I don't see why they would re-create the expensive beach crash scene just for this episode.

i'm sure it wasn't re-created but digitally edited. it was a decent episode but pretty worthless as far as the tale of the island goes. it was nice to see shannon and boone though.

They shot a couple of extra scenes, but the rest of it was edited or stock footage from the Pilot. Nikki and Paulo weren't cast until way after the Pilot episode. They certainly weren't there from the beginning, as much as they want us to believe they were:

Next week is a Juliet flashback that has some very important reveals, from what I hear. We'll see how she came to the island, and we'll also get a much better sense of her true intentions. Cannot wait.

I can also tell you that from what I've seen and heard, there will be a pretty major reveal in nearly every episode until this season's finale, so hold onto your seat cushions and reach for that overhead oxygen, Oceanic passengers. It's gonna be a fast landing!

Wow I think that sounds awesome...seeing Ethan in next weeks episode is just great...he also looks like something from the Village :laugh:

Latest Podcast...

# Locke will be back in ep 19

# Juliet probably knows more about the monster

# They indicate that Juliet has been banished, and it probably was personal from Ben

# The paper that Paulo reads at the airport was a prop error

# Rousseau will get a flashback at some point

# More info on the DeDroots soon

Nikki and Paulo may not have been cast until February, but the characters themselves in the overall story could have easily been a part of the plan the whole time, or maybe as they were working through the finer details of season three. I personally didn't mind having them there. It's just more characters, no need to get one's panties in a bind. :)

I completely disagree. There's plenty of reason to get angry over this. I'm a huge fan of Locke and I feel that Locke's story has been cheapened by because Nikki & Paulo found these things before Locke did. Boone died for no reason and if one of them had spoken up everyone else would have already known about this and Boone might not have died.

Possibly because moving from the beach would mean in some peoples minds that they are never going to get rescued and they are destined to live on the island for ever. This would be a little bit demoralising to the Losties.

While they remain on the beach there is the chance that they will still be rescued, which makes the ordeal and every day they spend there more bearable

So no Locke for next 3 episodes!

That sucks.

Btw, why didnt the smoke monster go above the sonic fence?

Thats like one of those obvious things...like when in Horror movies...girls rather then run to the door...they run round the house and get killed...

Don't know, the only thing I can figure is that it can't, but why who knows?

I thought that perhaps after the Russian got killed, they turned off the fence...thus why the Losties were able to get over the fence safely. :) As we've seen Smokey go higher than that.

Yeah I would of that...but maybe its the others who left the barracks needed to turn it off to leave...

D.O.C Episode Info...

After learning that the Others' pregnant woman all died before giving birth on the island, Sun allows Juliet to examine her; Desmond allows an unlikely nemesis to help save the life of a new, mysterious island inhabitant

there's a pretty noticeable glitch in this episode, don't how nobody mention it. I've captured 2 frames, one after Juliette falls and drags Kate with her, now look at Kate, when she's on her why down to the mad she's already dirty ..

I'm guessing the scene took couple of shots and the lost directors didn't had time to clean Kate :)

    • GeekBook X16 Pro Intel Core Ultra 9 thin and light laptop gets a 17% discount by Steven Parker GEEKOM is back with a 17% discount on its top-of-the-range X16 Pro laptop. You may remember that we reviewed the X14 Pro back in February, which marked GEEKOM's debut into the ultrathin laptop segment. You can view the full specs below. GEEKOM X16 Pro Model NX14CM Dimensions 322.58 × 213.36 × 5.8 mm (12.7"L x 8.4"W x 0.23"T) Weight 997 g / 2.2 lbs Material Unibody Magnesium Alloy CPU Intel Ultra 5 125H (14C/18T, 24MB L3, 2.3-5.1 GHz, TDP 20W) Intel Ultra 9 185H (16C/22T, 24MB L3, 2.3-4.5 GHz, TDP 35W) Graphics Intel Arc graphics 8 Xe-cores @ 2350MHz 1024 shading units/stream processors (128 CUs), 8 Raytracing Cores, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs NPU Intel AI Boost, 11 TOPS / Up to 33 TOPS (CPU+NPU+GPU) Memory 32GB Dual-channel LPDDR5x 7467 MT/s Micron SODIMM Storage 1 x M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 4x4, Wodposit 1TB, 2 TB Display 16.0" IPS LCD, 2560 × 1600 (16:10) 100% sRGB, 120Hz Refresh Rate Camera 2MP 1080P 1 × Light sensor in camera module 1 × LED indicator in the camera module Windows Hello Support: No Mic 2 x Digital Mics integrated in the camera module Speakers 2 x 3813 (4Ω×2W) built in body Audio Codec: ALC269QN-VC3-GR Certificate: DTS: X Ultra Operating System Windows 11 Pro 25H2 Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Wireless LAN MediaTek MT7922 M.2 Wi-Fi 6E LAN card Left I/O ports 1 x HDMI 2.0 2 x USB4 (40 Gbps) Right I/O ports 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gbps) 1 x 3.5 mm Audio jack 1 x Camera Privacy Shutter Keyboard 78Key 1.2±0.2mm / Height 3.5±0.2mm (with backlight) White LED light in Caps Lock and Fn key Language: Default US Touch Pad Dimension: 120 x 71mm Material: Mylar Position: Middle Interface: I2C, Dualpoint button Dock Input port: 1 x Type-C 2 x USB 3.0, 1 x RJ45 1 x PD 1 x HDMI (Bio) Security Fingerprint sensor (in the power button) SD Card slot No Kensington Lock No Battery 77Wh (Input 20V, 3.25A) Power 65W PD GaN Fast Charge, USB-C to USB-C Warranty 2 years (Early Bird 1+1 Years) Deal price $1119.67 The X16 Pro is powered by the Intel Ultra 9 185H, which was released in Q4 2023 and is a 14th Gen Meteor Lake CPU designed for laptop/mobile using the Intel 4 architecture based on a 7nm process. The Ultra 9 185H features 16 cores and 22 threads running at up to 5.1 GHz. It also includes a dedicated NPU utilizing Intel AI Boost at 11 TOPS. On the graphics front, the 185H includes the still fairly capable ARC Graphics (not to be confused with the newer ARC 140T) integrated GPU with a max GPU frequency of 2350 MHz across 8 Xe-cores. It has been said that the iGPU is equivalent to the NVIDIA GeForce 3050 and GTX 1650 in gaming and synthetic benchmarks. Other highlights include an AMOLED display, LPDDR5x memory at 7467 MT/s, WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, and a fingerprint sensor built into the power button. AI PC? Although the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H includes a dedicated NPU, it's only 11 TOPS; therefore, it does not qualify as a Copilot+ PC. However, it can reach up to 33 TOPS with a combination of NPU, CPU, and GPU. As I said, although we only reviewed the X14 Pro, the unboxing is the same for the X16 Pro, which I noted in my review. The packaging is quite a nice experience. The outer box houses the X16 Pro box with a small compartment that contains the 5-in-1 Dock ($40 value), which appears to be an "Early Bird" inclusion. Upon removing the box cover, the X16 Pro is revealed sitting in a cardboard compartment with two small booklets of documentation. To the left of the X16 Pro are two cardboard compartments containing the 65W charger and Type-C USB cable. What’s In The Box 1 x GEEKOM X16 Pro Ultra-thin Laptop 1 x Type-C to Type-C cable 1.8M 1 x 65W GaN PD Fast Charger 1 x Warranty Card 1 x Thank You Card 1 x User Guide All products sold by GEEKOM receive a 3-year free Warranty from the date you receive the product.

    • We are reached to the point that apple looks affordable and better choice than anything else, in what dystopia are we living in....
    • Ouch. $1600 for 256GB SSD / 16GB? Even Apple, the purported "target" of Surface devices for a long time, has its MacBook Air M5 at 512GB SSD / 16GB RAM for $999 MSRP. Surface will never be reasonably priced with such low volumes.
    • Sadly price is pretty in line with the other new X2 devices so far. RAM/SSD prices have ruined everything.
